How many Season Ticket holders do GTFC?

Thinking of the upcoming season, and potential restrictions. How many season ticket holders did we have last season (19/20). Are we looking at the possibility of only season ticket holders, or even not all season ticket holders, being able to get to games until restrictions are lifted further?

Think we had around 3,000 STH's last season, regarding the future who knows.

Think we had around 3,000 STH's last season, regarding the future who knows.

I think that amount included half season tickets sold at Xmas. I would be surprised if we could get all 3,000 into the stadium with social distancing in place. The ground is bloody old and very narrow in places that makes it difficult to observe a 1 metre distance let alone 2!

It was less than 3,000. Around 2,600.

Unfortunately I think the club have to start by selling to existing STHs. Can’t see how they can cater for new STHs it we’re looking at 2,500-3,000 maximum.

Given the noises coming from the club i dont think there will even be a season ticket this season, the cluster fck way the government are going about managing the outbreak i cant see any clearly signposted ways for the EFL to give a green light to open grounds up.
Think the closest we will get is a season ticket for i follow, and the problem with trying to sell that , as most weeks on here there is an i follow thread usually starting with " anyone getting anything .... i have commentary from Hull but no picture" .

Will be alot of peeed off people if they cant get it right this season.

The club need to do something to stay afloat. What about a membership scheme for Season ticket holders?
Say £20 a month Minimum 12 months.

Behind closed doors you get a voucher for ifollow, if fans are allowed in you get your seat.

No football and you can still choose to pay your subs.

iFollow can’t be used as the income generator for clubs if/when the season starts.

Aside from folk finding it unreliable, there’s those folk who don’t have access to it (yes I know these numbers are small these days), then there’s families that would only need one subscription but say Mum, dad and the kids all normally have a ST or buy match tickets and then there’s pubs etc which will show games meaning say 50-100 possible fans will not buy their own subscription choosing the pub instead.

I think the clusterfuck the government have caused throughout, coupes with the EFLs inability to do anything sensible means it could be a disaster for leagues 1 and 2.

I’ve said all along, partially opening with limited numbers is ridiculous; it’s either safe, or it’s not. I’d people aren’t happy with going, they don’t have to but stadiums should either be completely shut or completely open.

The teams signing players at present is interesting, some of the usual suspects are doing what they always do but there’s also teams without a pot to urine in doing it. Are they being proactive or jumping the gun?

Will clubs like us end up lagging because we’ve been ‘sensible’ or can we still benefit because players will possibly be more open to lower contract etc?

Without wanting to politicise this thread, though there are many aspects of this crisis that the government have made a clusterfùck of, I think you’re being harsh there.

It’s either safe or it’s not? This isn’t a binary situation. What we have is an economic balancing act - trying to reopen as much of the economy as possible whilst keeping cases and deaths as low as possible until we have a viable vaccine in place.

The reality is, right now it’s not 100% safe to do anything.  We’re seeing clusters of cases linked to individual pubs and bars. No one really knows what the impact of reopening stadiums could be, but to dive straight in and allow tens of thousands of people to mingle in the same place is a non-starter.

Based on your logic, if that’s the case we should just say “fùck it, no one can go then”. How then, would you propose clubs without wealthy backers capable of underwriting huge losses finance next season?

Personally, I’d like to see an option for two types of season ticket, one of which the purchaser waives their right to any matches which they may not be able to attend for any reason whatsoever. It is of course a risk to the individual, but what it does is give the club a degree of guaranteed income upon which to plan financially. Not everyone could afford to take that risk, but for those that can, it would go a long way to securing the club’s future.
